Section 2 Basic Operations
Flow of heater temperature setting
(1) If the paper type is selected in setting the paper, the temperature initial
value of each heater set for that paper is set on the heater control panel.
- If the temperature initial value has been set, the heater turns on. (Heating
does not start yet.)
- If the temperature initial value is set to **, the heater turns off. (The set
temperature display on the heater control panel becomes OFF.)
(2) If the print data are sent from the host (PC), either of the following
operations is performed before the print starts.
A) If "Priority Setting (Heater)" set for the paper is "Data Priority"
- The temperature set with RIP (print data, job) overwrites the set
temperature on the heater control panel, and the heating starts. (The
heating does not start if the temperature set value is OFF.)
- If the temperature is not set with RIP (print data, job), the heating starts
with the set temperature on the heater control panel.
B) If "Priority Setting (Heater)" set for the paper is "Panel Priority"
- The temperature set with RIP is ignored and the heating starts with the
set temperature on the heater control panel.
(3) The print starts when the current temperature of front, print, and rear heaters
all reaches the value exceeding "set temperature -2 °C", the print starts.
If the current temperature is higher than the set temperature, the print starts
without waiting for the temperature to drop. Even after the print started, the
temperature control is made so that the heaters keep the set temperature.
(4) During the printing, the temperature can vary while the printing is
performed by changing the set temperature with the "TEMPERATURE
UP/DOWN" key on the heater control panel.
Even after the print finished, the temperature changed in this section
remains as "set temperature".
(5) Hence, the print job returns to step (2).
For the temperature initial value setting of front, print, and rear heaters, and
the priority setting (heater), see Section 3 Entry Menu.
- The heaters operate under the condition displayed on the
heater control panel, whatever means are used to set
the temperature.
